Welcome to the Career Ready Podcast. Learn about resumes, cover letters, LinkedIn, interviewing and all the things you need to be career ready with the Career Services Center at College of DuPage. I'm one of your hosts, Rebecca Harrington. Today I'm going to talk about how I can help you prepare for your next interview.
00:00:18:19 - 00:00:27:03
Unknown
And I'm your co-host for this episode, Pia michaels. I'm going to start our episode today by talking about one of the next competencies communication.
00:00:27:03 - 00:00:47:12
Unknown
Rebecca, before I do a deep dive into communication, have you ever heard the quote by George Bernard Shaw? The single biggest problem in communication is the illusion that it has taken place. I have not heard this quote, but I'm pretty sure that my husband and I would both say it about each other.
00:00:47:14 - 00:01:02:22
Unknown
I think it comes about a lot in marriages. Yeah, so no, I think this is a this is a great quote because I think oftentimes in communication, people think they're being clear. And then later on it comes out that maybe, maybe they weren't so clear.
00:01:02:22 - 00:01:11:16
Unknown
Yeah. You know, there's a lot of miscommunication that happens. And we have to really think about when is communication really happening.
00:01:11:17 - 00:01:36:27
Unknown
If it's miscommunication. Right. Exactly. But I really like this quote because it captures that idea of hearing people versus talking and listening. Yeah. Yeah. Like you hear something. But then are you really taking it in and understanding it correctly. Thank you. So it's easy to give off that appearance of communication and just sitting there taking in the information.
00:01:36:27 - 00:01:44:28
Unknown
But for communication to actually happen it has to be a two way street, right. It has to ensure that there's clarity and understanding. Yes.
00:01:44:28 - 00:02:00:26
Unknown
So sticking with Nace, right. The National Association of Colleges Employers, communication is defined as clear and efficiently exchanging information, ideas, facts and perspectives with persons inside and outside of an organization.
00:02:00:26 - 00:02:07:26
Unknown
So this definition, while broad, encompasses different types of communication the verbal the non verbal, the written.
00:02:07:26 - 00:02:08:07
Unknown
All right.
00:02:08:07 - 00:02:33:00
Unknown
But when we think of what George Bernard Shaw was saying with communication it can have its pitfall, right? This idea or this illusion of communication happens because it's not active. Yeah. When you're passive about communication it's not going to go well. Absolutely. So that brings us to the nice behaviors. Because these behaviors are helping us better act.
00:02:33:01 - 00:03:07:19
Unknown
Behavior is being active I got it. So one of those nice communication behaviors is asking appropriate questions to gather specific information from supervisors specialist and others. So this lets us, talk about, this behavior and being active in our community action. So it's not just this illusion. Okay. So the big part here is asking questions. And asking questions is a powerful tool to help us enhance, understand ending building relationships, encouraging critical thinking.
00:03:07:24 - 00:03:10:13
Unknown
And it really creates credibility in who we are.
00:03:10:13 - 00:03:21:04
Unknown
Harvard Business Review identified that employees who regularly ask questions are 50% more likely to be seen as a leader of their peers.
00:03:21:04 - 00:03:32:18
Unknown
Wow, that's pretty big percentage. It is. Yeah. Why do you think that may be, though? I mean, I think it makes sense because someone that's asking questions, it then shows that you've been listening.
00:03:32:23 - 00:03:56:03
Unknown
Right. Because you're asking questions about what someone is saying. So obviously you paid attention and it also makes it seem like you're thinking about the next thing and you're getting more information because then you're going to come out with with your next thing. And it really it does, I think, show that you're involved and that you care.
00:03:56:05 - 00:04:18:03
Unknown
Yeah. That's really, I would say the biggest part of that. And you're not in it just for yourself. Yeah. Exactly. Right. Because you're listening to what the other people are saying, right? You're actually listening to them. You're hearing what they're saying, and then you're asking these questions. You're trying to get more of the information so then everyone can move together.
00:04:18:06 - 00:04:42:26
Unknown
Yeah, absolutely. Yeah. So then as we understand this, communication is happening, we have to understand that there are just different types of questions that we are asking. So we could break this down into four main categories. Those open ended questions. So these are the ones that encourage detailed responses. Right. Can you explain how this process works.
00:04:42:26 - 00:04:45:26
Unknown
On the reverse side we have those close ended questions.
00:04:46:01 - 00:05:12:09
Unknown
The simple yes or no's right. It's this is useful to confirm specific information. Did you complete that report. If they give a big story right they have an excuse. Right right right. So then there are also clarifying questions. So this is to ensure that there is understanding or avoiding that miscommunication. Making sure it's not just an illusion that by communication is actually happening here.
00:05:12:12 - 00:05:14:10
Unknown
So what do you mean by
00:05:14:10 - 00:05:20:12
Unknown
whatever they said. Can you tell me more about this. Yeah. All right getting that detail from them.
00:05:20:12 - 00:05:27:18
Unknown
But then there's also probing questions. So this is diving deeper into that topic. Can you tell me more about.
00:05:27:18 - 00:05:32:27
Unknown
Yeah I use that as kind of both a clarifying like can you you know both ways you can.
00:05:33:02 - 00:05:53:00
Unknown
But but probing questions are good because again it's showing that you are trying to get deeper. And and you'd probably get more specific. Right. You know with that as far as you want to, to take a deeper dive into what they're saying. And, and then maybe it leads to more of a conversation. Actually, I feel like with the the probing question.
00:05:53:01 - 00:06:03:24
Unknown
Yeah. And, you know, conversations are always so unique. You know, it's just a matter of are you trying to get better understanding or are you just trying to get more information.
00:06:03:24 - 00:06:15:15
Unknown
So then to ask these questions effectively it's important to be prepared clear and concise. Know what information you need and who to be asking for that information.
00:06:15:15 - 00:06:17:09
Unknown
So formulate your questions
00:06:17:09 - 00:06:25:10
Unknown
clearly to avoid confusion and listen actively and respond and ask follow up questions as needed.
00:06:25:10 - 00:06:38:14
Unknown
This can help you show empathy and build a better perspective of the people that you're talking with. Yeah, I think and you know, I just want to highlight one part of it was, you need to know who to ask.
00:06:38:17 - 00:06:59:10
Unknown
And so I think sometimes as we start a new position, you know, especially if you're a student, maybe you're doing an internship. We get scared, you know, we're just kind of like, okay, okay, they're going to introduce me to people, but, like, you know, really do pay attention to who they're introducing you to. And don't be afraid to say, oh, you know, so if I have a question about this, who is the best person for me to ask?
00:06:59:12 - 00:07:20:18
Unknown
And then that way you know for sure kind of who to go to or if you're not sure who to go to, always ask. You know, I think my my thing that I always say is, it's better to ask a question and look a little stupid now than not ask a question and look a lot stupider later, you know, like, a lot worse later.
00:07:20:20 - 00:07:42:09
Unknown
You know, be like, well, why didn't you just ask? Right? You might be like, why did he ask that question? Yep. But if you need to ask it again, you need to ask it again and just do it. Yeah. And you know, as you were saying, just to ask it especially early on. Shows that you're wanting to learn that you want to take this on and do it correctly.
00:07:42:12 - 00:07:55:18
Unknown
But if you delay in asking questions well that means that there's probably issues and things that have developed. And yeah, right now you're trying to correct the problems that you created and could have avoided. Yes, absolutely.
00:07:56:02 - 00:08:30:29
Unknown
So thinking of asking questions of course comes up in the interview process as well. Yes. True. So being able to do some, research of that company, being able to, really understand what you're getting into, preparing, with questions that will demonstrate your interest in understanding. Right. So when we go into that interview, always wanting to ask questions, a good question could be, can you describe the team dynamics and how this role fits in with the team,
00:08:30:29 - 00:08:35:26
Unknown
or what are the biggest challenges the team is currently facing?
00:08:35:28 - 00:08:43:20
Unknown
And these are great questions because it is for that deeper understanding, right. It's being able to
00:08:43:20 - 00:08:57:23
Unknown
get something that you couldn't get elsewhere. Yeah. Yeah. You're not just asking a question that you could have just googled. How many employees do you have at this company. We could have look that up. Right. But asking about the dynamics on the team.
00:08:57:23 - 00:09:11:15
Unknown
Yeah. That's something you need to hear from the people on the ground. Yeah. So you want to practice active listening during the interview and then show that engagement by asking follow up questions based off the responses you're receiving.
00:09:11:15 - 00:09:22:25
Unknown
So before I hand it off to Rebecca to do a deeper dive into interviewing, to wrap up here, effective communication and asking appropriate questions are more than skills.
00:09:22:25 - 00:09:41:12
Unknown
They're really these values that employers are seeking in their new hires and their employees. So demonstrating these qualities through your actions and your presentation to employers, including during the interview, can set you apart from the other applicants.
00:09:41:12 - 00:09:42:24
Unknown
Yeah, absolutely.
00:09:42:24 - 00:09:51:15
Unknown
Thank you so much for that. Peer communication we know is one of the top skills and players are looking for, so it's always worth the discussion okay.
00:09:51:18 - 00:10:11:24
Unknown
All right. So let's get into our main topic today. So we're going to be diving into something that is really important for college students for recent graduates. And to be honest really anyone that is about to go into a job interview, which is most of us at some point in our lives, right. And we're going to talk about how you can use AI to help you prepare for your interview.
00:10:11:26 - 00:10:39:27
Unknown
Interviewing can be daunting, but the good news is you don't have to do it alone. AI tools can be incredibly helpful for everything from practicing common questions, to refining your answers and building up your confidence. So let's talk about how you can turn AI into your assistant for your interview. So, you know, we're going to talk about ethical good use of AI as we go right into your assistant, not your doer, not your do everything right.
00:10:39:29 - 00:11:19:09
Unknown
So before we start, just in general, there are a lot of AI tools out there that we've been talking about this semester. Semester this season. Right. I'm in my college mindset. But we've talked about a lot of different tools, like ChatGPT or Gemini or Copilot. If you're a student at College of DuPage or live in the DuPage Area Code, Career Services actually has an amazing, I interview software called Big Interview, and it is an AI interview prep platform that does all of the things that I'm going to be talking about today, and actually even takes it a step further with great videos, video, AI feedback.
00:11:19:11 - 00:11:38:27
Unknown
So if you are in the, you know, kind of code universe, you can go to our website code edu slash career services, and I'll put a link of course, in the show notes. And you can go to our website and then fill out a little form and get access to Big Interview. So if you're in the area, definitely be sure to do that.
00:11:39:00 - 00:11:59:26
Unknown
But even if you don't have access to a big interview or you just want to expand even beyond it, you know, you can use any of those AI platforms I mentioned and the tools that we're going to talk about today to help you get prepared. One last thing I want to mention before going into this topic is that sometimes it can feel like using AI is cheating.
00:12:00:02 - 00:12:09:11
Unknown
Like sometimes, I don't know. For some people, I think they get nervous about using it. And we're definitely going to talk about ethical use of AI before we're done today. But I just want to mention
00:12:09:11 - 00:12:27:09
Unknown
employers are also using AI to review your answers. So not in every interview, but a lot of times before you go in and see a person, more and more companies are asking you to record your answers to questions and then submit it ahead of time, almost like a first round.
00:12:27:11 - 00:12:46:11
Unknown
And often it's not a person that's reviewing those answers, but I so kind of like I often is. What's reviewing your resume? First, I can be what is reviewing your interview first. And to me I say if a computer is going to be reviewing our answers, then I think it's fair that we use computers to help us prepare those answers.
00:12:46:11 - 00:12:51:26
Unknown
Yeah, and that's an important thing to realize that it's not just
00:12:51:26 - 00:13:12:29
Unknown
interviews are happening virtually, right. These recordings have AI components tied into them. And it's just becoming more and more prevalent. You know, virtual interviewing has been around for a long time. You know, with the pandemic, absolutely everything just kind of ballooned and became extremely popular. But everything was kind of drifting towards this.
00:13:12:29 - 00:13:22:20
Unknown
And now with advancements in AI, it's just making them use it in different ways, and we have to get comfortable with it. Yeah, absolutely. Absolutely.
00:13:22:20 - 00:13:43:04
Unknown
Let's start with one of the best ways to use AI to help you prepare for the interview, which is simulating interview questions. So with those tools like ChatGPT Gemini Big Interview, you can put in a job title or even better, the description of the job or the job posting, that you're applying for.
00:13:43:04 - 00:13:53:08
Unknown
So marketing intern, data analyst, entry level software engineer, and then ask AI to generate common interview questions tailored for that position.
00:13:53:08 - 00:14:07:18
Unknown
remember, the more information you give AI, the better it's going to be able to give you suggestions. So for example, you could try asking, you know quote give me ten common interview questions for an entry level data analyst role.
00:14:07:20 - 00:14:31:14
Unknown
You could then go further and answer each of the questions, and then ask AI for feedback on your responses. You might say, here's my answer to this question. Can you suggest improvements or make it sound more polished? So I'm giving you a few prompts there, but I am going to put, these prompts in our show notes as well, along with a few others.
00:14:31:16 - 00:14:38:02
Unknown
Then what I talk about in the episode today, because I think they're good to help get you started. I mean, I
00:14:38:02 - 00:14:55:10
Unknown
is a great tool, but you need to be able to ask at the right question. Have you noticed that here let you know, like I'll ask. It's something I'm like, wait, why am I getting that? So I'll go back and I'll just like rephrase it slightly and I get something completely different.
00:14:55:13 - 00:15:16:20
Unknown
So being aware of that language and what you're inputting does have a big impact into that output. Yeah, absolutely. So I mean computers are smart but they're not that smart yet. Right. We're not quite in Terminator territory yet. So right when I'd say roughly never, hopefully never. But you know, so whatever, it only knows what you tell it.
00:15:16:20 - 00:15:35:07
Unknown
Right. And then, of course, you know, bringing in the outside influences, but having the right, prompt is, is important. Okay. So again, we can generate this list of questions. Right. And maybe you've worked on giving some basic answers to the questions, but we want to maybe push those answers a little bit further. So we've talked about this before on the podcast.
00:15:35:07 - 00:16:01:26
Unknown
But let's talk about it again a lot of interviews use behavioral questions to get a sense of how you think and act in real life situations. Right. They want to kind of put you on the spot and kind of say, hey, what would you do if this happened? Right? You've heard these before. Like, tell me about a time that you worked on a team or describe a challenge you faced and how you handled it, or give an example of a time you had to manage multiple priorities.
00:16:01:28 - 00:16:24:00
Unknown
So we've talked before about one of the best ways to answer these kinds of questions is using the star method. Right. And if you've listened to those episodes on star, which stands for situation, task, action and Result, then you know that the great part about the star method is that it forces you to tell a story instead of just giving a general answer, you know?
00:16:24:00 - 00:16:49:17
Unknown
So instead of saying, you know, I helped, a customer get what they needed, you know, you're going to have to really go a bit more in-depth about what happened and what it is you had to do, the action you took and what the results were for that action. Now, I can help you build and refine your star stories so you would start by writing a quick summary in the prompt for the AI.
00:16:49:18 - 00:17:13:09
Unknown
So for example, you would write, I was part of a student club that organized a campus fundraiser, and I was responsible for social media marketing. Then you could ask, can you help me turn this into a strong star format? Interview? Answer. And then the AI is going to walk you through each step, helping you sound both articulate and prepared.
00:17:13:16 - 00:17:45:03
Unknown
For example, it will ask you more questions to help you write out your answer. Now notice that I didn't say that it's going to write the answer for you. I can do a lot of things, but it cannot write the answer for you right? In this situation. It can't do it because it wasn't there. So while you can give AI this prompt and then ask it to to kind of help you write this answer about the situation at your job and ask you these questions to clarify, you were the one that was there and know what the situation was.
00:17:45:10 - 00:18:00:24
Unknown
You were the one that was there and know what the result was. So again, well, AI is going to help you get the answer prepared and it's going to help take you step by step through the process. It isn't going to answer it for you. And the good you know what I want to mention. Shout up to big interview.
00:18:00:24 - 00:18:21:09
Unknown
It does a really good job of this, in fact, not just for the star method, but for other questions as well. And you again, you can use other AI's, but I love Big Interview. It does a really great job of helping you kind of step by step, you know, write out those those answers to behavioral questions. And we'll, we'll dive back into this ethical piece of it again.
00:18:21:09 - 00:18:44:04
Unknown
But again, just to remember that, you know, I can really help you get your thoughts together, but you still have to have the thoughts right. And part of that prompt, you know, something to help it is to actually prompted to ask you questions and say, ask me questions that you need about results, you know, whatever. Absolutely. So you can make this better.
00:18:44:06 - 00:19:10:00
Unknown
Yeah. Absolutely. Yeah. Again if it's not if it's not prompting you with exactly how you need it, tell it what you need it to do because that's a big downfall to AI is it likes to hallucinate. It will just fill in gaps. It will make up content. That's true. So if you discover that is making up content, probably actually leave that chat channel because I've experienced this before where it's like, oh, this is what was referenced.
00:19:10:04 - 00:19:23:28
Unknown
So I'm going to keep drawing from that because it each channel kind of like has a memory. Yes. Of that conversation. So starting a new channel with a new problem and you know, try to make sure whatever is being
00:19:23:28 - 00:19:33:20
Unknown
produced through there isn't hallucinations of the system. Yeah. It's not pulling some example it found on the internet. It's using your example right for it.
00:19:33:22 - 00:19:52:29
Unknown
All right. So then the next step is telling your answers to the job description. A big mistake that, early career job seekers make is giving generic answers. I mean, here we talk about this, right? All the time. It's probably our number one piece of advice. Generic goes in one ear, out the other. It doesn't get remembered at all.
00:19:53:00 - 00:20:12:12
Unknown
No hiring managers can spot them a mile away. Right? These answers don't really help them get to know you and don't really show them that you know what you're talking about, right? It doesn't help them see you in the job. So what we want is to make sure that our answers are more specific to the job itself, and give them more information about us.
00:20:12:14 - 00:20:30:12
Unknown
With AI, you can post the job description into a prompt and then ask it, you know, what are the top three skills or qualities this company is looking for? Or maybe you ask it, how could I talk about my part time retail job in a way that aligns with this business analyst role now? In fact, I'd maybe take it a step further.
00:20:30:12 - 00:20:57:12
Unknown
And, you know, if you want, I can take out any personal details like your address. But, you know, you could post actually the text from your resume and say, you know, hey, these are my experiences. And then this is the job description. Can you help me pull out the experiences that would be most relevant to these particular, skills or to this particular job description?
00:20:57:14 - 00:21:08:00
Unknown
And, you know, in your experience, as we know, doesn't always just have to be jobs. It could come from coursework, clubs, you know, summer jobs or, you know, other the career,
00:21:08:00 - 00:21:08:12
Unknown
00:21:08:12 - 00:21:18:19
Unknown
paths that you took in the past, right? You know, whatever information you give it, it can then maybe help you clarify, right, how you can talk about those things and make them make sense for this role.
00:21:18:21 - 00:21:43:27
Unknown
Now, of course, we don't want to just repeat what I says, right? We're using AI to get the information that we can then use to customize for our own answers. So for example, if we use the prompt that says, you know, what are the top three skills or qualities this company is looking for, we can then make sure that we think of stories and examples from our own experiences that relate or show those top three skills projects we do in our classes, or things we did in previous jobs.
00:21:43:29 - 00:22:08:29
Unknown
And when we're answering the questions during the interview, we make sure that we highlight those skills and qualities whenever possible. You know, we'll talk about this a little bit more later, but if you are just repeating something that a computer told you to say, you aren't going to be able to stand up to the questioning that's going to come after it right here, you know that we were talking about questioning earlier that they're going to ask you questions, right?
00:22:09:00 - 00:22:13:25
Unknown
Verifying questions. Right? Yeah. If you're just, taking
00:22:13:25 - 00:22:30:21
Unknown
in the information that AI is presenting to you and you're like, oh, this is my information, this is what I'm sharing, this is what I'm going to say. It's not your voice. So then when they ask their questions for clarification, deeper understanding,
00:22:30:21 - 00:22:31:16
Unknown
well,
00:22:31:16 - 00:22:36:00
Unknown
you're not going to be able to respond as well as if you just developed those on your own.
00:22:36:00 - 00:22:55:09
Unknown
So use AI as that assistant to help you understand some of these things, but then you take it to make it your own. Absolutely right. So one more topic to talk about today and that is delivery. We don't want to sound robotic. We don't want to sound like we wrote something and just memorized it. And we're just going to say that thing and that's it.
00:22:55:12 - 00:23:19:10
Unknown
It's important that you're prepared. And then the suggestions I give you for what the questions could be may not exactly be the way the questions are worded in the interview as well. So I love this because it goes exactly to what you were talking about earlier that you need to listen to the questions that they're asking you because, you know, I made its best guess as to what the questions were going to be for the interview, but that may not be exactly what they are.

So make sure that you're listening right. Make sure that you're being agile, right. And kind of taking the things that you wrote, ahead of time and practice ahead of time. And, you know, you're fitting them in. But also sometimes they may ask a question that's pretty similar, right, to what the prompts were. And it's important that you're not just regurgitating this answer.

Right. We want to sound natural. Like you said, you want to sound like your delivery is coming from you. So and, you know, in this case, AI is helpful for us as well. Big interview is a great tool for this. But there, is also Google's interview warmup, is one that I found. And there's other programs out there too.
00:23:59:20 - 00:24:31:03

And if you can find one like big interview that is a video, reviewer that's also really great. So what what happens with that is that you can actually record yourself giving the answer, and then the program can analyze your speech patterns and your background. That's a video one. And then make sure that you're answering the questions well so it can look for things like filler words like, like, you know, I can look at your pace of speech, at your eye contact, and it can also listen to the tone of your voice.

It's not necessarily going to be able to review the content, but it's looking at your delivery. So do you sound natural? And really these are invaluable bits of feedback. And they can be used to make sure that your answers sound like your voice. They sound natural to you. It's kind of weird to think that a computer can give you feedback on whether you sound like a human.
00:24:57:04 - 00:25:23:24

But you know, here you've you've used Big Interview a lot. Do you find that it does a good job of reviewing that kind of human sounding parts of the, the answers that people record? Yeah, yeah. You know, that's important thing to think about with this big interview platform. Is it really about the presentation. Right. It does have a little bit related to the answer, but it's really about how well you're presenting yourself
00:25:23:24 - 00:25:26:06

related to eye contact.
00:25:26:12 - 00:25:44:06

But the filler words, the power words, the language you're using in your response. So not necessarily the quality of the response time into the actual question. But how well are you presenting yourself and when you can get that down and you find that good balance,
00:25:44:06 - 00:25:49:16

then, you know, spending time doing these other things that Rebecca has been talked about at the start
00:25:49:19 - 00:25:53:21

becomes very helpful in building up the content.
00:25:53:24 - 00:26:25:08

Absolutely. So it is really a part of really again, not just memorizing what I tells you to say, but really understanding it and understanding what you're going to sell about yourself. And then use the tools to help make sure that you are sounding, like yourself. Right? And, and sounding like a person that they're going to be able to understand right now, before we wrap up, we've been talking about this the whole episode, but let's just again take a quick note of responsible use of AI.
00:26:25:10 - 00:26:48:13

So, these are amazing for prep, but don't let them do the thinking for you. The best answers come from your real experience using your own voice and your own authentic self. Interviewers will be able to tell if you're just repeating somebody else's words. If an interviewer asked follow up questions and things, you might not be telling the truth, or that you're just repeating something, they will not be impressed.
00:26:48:15 - 00:27:17:23

So we're going to use AI to brainstorm, to refine, to practice, but not to fabricate stories and not to have canned responses that everybody else has. Employers are looking for you, right? Not for a perfectly programed script. So let's review our top tips. One use AI to simulate interview questions and get feedback. To structure behavioral questions with star and ask AI to help make them stronger.
00:27:17:25 - 00:27:37:21

Number three, tailor your answers to the job itself so an AI can kind of help you figure out what it is that they're looking for. And then, of course, practice out loud, right, with the AI tools that give you feedback on speech tone and clarity. And number five, stay authentic. AI can help. But you are the one that's going to get hired.

So as
00:27:38:22 - 00:27:50:13

part of our show notes today, as I mentioned, I am going to include some of the AI prompts that we talked about. And a few more. Just to help get you started using AI for your next interview. I think that
00:27:50:13 - 00:27:57:10

it's a great tool and we shouldn't be scared of it. Yeah, important thing to realize.
